A regional OPP spokeswoman said early information indicated the crash occurred at the intersection of Highway 11-17 and Mapleward Road.

She said she couldn’t confirm what type of vehicles were involved in the crash, but a motorcycle and a sports utility vehicle were observed at the scene.

The crash is believed to have occurred before 7 a.m.

Routes near the crash site that police had closed during a traffic investigation were being re-opened late Monday afternoon, the spokeswoman said.
